Frequently Asked Questions

How do you handle snow removal during peak shopping hours?

We coordinate with retail properties to minimize disruption during business hours. For most retail centers, we clear parking lots and walkways before stores open. During business hours, we work efficiently to clear areas without blocking customer access. We can also provide after-hours clearing for properties that prefer it.

What happens if snow falls during Black Friday or holiday shopping periods?

We understand that peak shopping seasons are critical for retail success. We prioritize retail properties during these periods and can provide more frequent service to ensure continuous access. Many retail contracts include enhanced service levels during holiday shopping seasons to maintain customer access.

How do you prevent snow removal from blocking customer parking?

We use strategic plowing patterns that minimize parking space loss. For properties with limited space, we can provide snow hauling services to remove snow off-site, preserving maximum parking capacity. We coordinate with property managers to identify optimal snow storage areas.

Do you provide service for multi-tenant retail centers?

Yes, we specialize in serving multi-tenant retail centers, strip malls, and shopping centers. We coordinate with property management to ensure all tenants benefit from comprehensive snow removal. Our services cover common areas, individual storefronts, and shared parking facilities.

How important is de-icing for retail properties?

De-icing is critical for retail properties due to high foot traffic and liability exposure. Slip-and-fall accidents can result in costly lawsuits and damage customer relationships. We recommend combining snow plowing with de-icing for comprehensive protection, especially in high-traffic areas like entrances and walkways.

Can you provide same-day service for unexpected snow events?

Yes, we provide emergency snow removal service 24/7, including same-day response for unexpected weather. Our weather monitoring system helps us prepare for storms, but we're always ready to respond to unexpected snowfall that could impact your business operations.
